The link says they're for a Ferrari which I am sure is why the response indicated no pics..

Well, I just took a look now and see that a member had some bad drilled issues in to their 3 piece; clearly a mistake or lack of quality control on ADV1's part.

Without getting into too much detail, I would never buy ADV1 ever again. I havent seen my wheels in person yet, so I can speak about their quality (yet), but from a project management standpoint, ADV1 is probably one of the worst companies I have ever had to deal with.

I am praying that I dont have customer service issues, because if i do I know I will likely have to goto court to get them resolved.

Dont get me wrong... based on the pictures i see of my wheels, they look great and will probably look amazing on my car, but if you reading this post, NEVER EVER NEVER EVER buy ADV1. Do yourself a favor and get some brand like BBS or HRE.

I will post some more pictures about quality/fitment/etc when I get them on. I will likely have them this friday, so stay tuned for pictures.


If an ADV1 rep reads this, your welcome to contact me via PM.

Thanks!

I do love the wheels but to what you already said I would never ever buy ADV1...A bunch of shops by me stopped selling them bc of awful quality and poor customer service...You know the saying fool me once (360forged) fool me twice (ADV1) maybe they'll start a third company and tell everyone they changed their ways

Looking good! I like the 2 piece look.

How does the Brembo work on the rear? I thought it isn't compatible with e-brake.
